Flatiron: 1771 Group of Restaurants’ Newest Offering

What we like best about this restaurant is that it seems like a no fuss all about good food restaurant and it has a pretty good view of people rushing by in and out of Uptown Mall. It definitely has the New York feel to it too which would appeal more to the young but [...] Read More

Book Hunting: Tokyo Edition

From Kinokuniya, Tsutaya, Cow Books at Nakameguro to the streets of Jimbocho and then finally to a luggage half full of newly released titles not available in Manila and a second hand complete volume of the Lemony Snicket series (a steal at only 4500 yen!) - that is the story of our book hunting in [...] Read More

L’Opera Ristorante Italiano will take you back to the Italy

Many of our friends' wedding proposals happened in this place and so we decided to pop by for a visit and remind ourselves how great the food is here. The restaurant, although private and quiet in nature, was abuzz with people but always each table manages to keep to themselves. We ordered so much for [...] Read More

Davao Eats: Huckleberry Southern Kitchen and Bar

Replacing Cellar De Oboza is a cozy resto bar called Huckleberry. We came in early to make sure that we finished our food before the place turns into a drinking place deep into the night but because of the liquor ban we also already started sampling their bar specialties beginning with the mojito while waiting [...] Read More

Generous Servings of Comfort Food at Fireside by Kettle

We love Smoking Loon and therefore we trust that any restaurant that serves a bottle of this is worthy to try. So one Sunday, we decided to have lunch at the relatively newly opened Fireside by Kettle along Lopez Drive of Power Plant Mall. We were surprised to find out how affordable it was considering [...] Read More

Gongyubei: From the Shangri-La of the East to the Great Wall of the South

Long weekends usually release a travel bug epidemic so imagine how many people there are on the road, the plane, the train, the boat - whichever remedies that itch of yours - when they come around. As plane fares usually skyrocket on these 3-4 day holidays, we opted to take the bus. We heard of [...] Read More

Black Hole: Yakiniku Overload

Our main goal for that evening was to explore the Golden Gai and finding a place in the area to have dinner. It was still quite early when we arrived so we didn't have a problem navigating the narrow streets and examining the menus of have yet to open bars and pubs. It's quite inviting [...] Read More

New York Favorites now in Tokyo: Shake Shack and Dominique Ansel Bakery

In a recent trip to Tokyo, most of our friends thought we were in New York because of our food posts. It's because two places we frequent are NY staples that are just as popular in Japan. Very rarely will you see the outside of Shake Shack without a line even if it is raining. [...] Read More

Cherry Blossoms 2016: Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden (Tokyo, Japan)

A couple of years ago we chased the cherry blossoms around Japan but we missed the days when it was full bloom. This year we made sure to witness the most beautiful days of the year in Japan and that includes seeing the blooms transform into snow-like piles on the ground. One of the best [...] Read More

Katsuzen: Michelin Slow Food Tonkatsu

Sitting above Barneys New York in Ginza is a gem of a place for those who love Tonkatsu. Sure, it's in a posh location but once you step inside this unassuming restaurant, you immediately feel right at home. I was welcomed by a friendly face, presumably the daughter of the owner said to be in [...] Read More
